Little Sips, Big Developments: Designed for babies 6 months and older to develop independent drinking skills, transition to a mature swallowing and breathing pattern, and build oral motor skills with every sip. Just the right size: Our baby straw cup is designed to sit on the lips to maximize oral motor and speech development (unlike traditional sippy cups and toddler cups with straws). It is intentionally short and narrow to promote proper lip closure and tongue tip elevation (prevents biting and biting of the tongue). Designed for Any Situation: A weighted straw allows your baby to drink from any angle, and it's one piece for easy assembly and cleaning. Removable handles have a non-slip tactile grip to make it easy for your little one to hold and drink on their own. Easily remove the handles to fit into cup holders when on the go. Minimize Mess and Stress: An internal pressure system keeps the cup spill-proof at any angle, and the flippable cap further prevents spills and reduces mess at home or on-the-go. Made without Compromises: 100% food-grade silicone straw that’s gentle on developing teeth and gums. No BPA, Phthalates, or PVC, and cleans easily in the dishwasher or with the included cleaning brush. Add this to your collection of baby led weaning supplies and get it in one of the following fun colors: Blue, Orange, or Glacier Green!
